Weekend and Hobbies

May 17, 2010 14:26

The weekend was mostly organizing and more unpacking. Saturday we took a break for a trip to Goodwill and the grocery store. I cast on for the triangular leaf shawl just to see if I could. I dropped a stitch somewhere in row 17 or 18 but by getting that far I proved to myself that I could do it and SK2P is way easier than I thought. I found a ( Read more... )

heh your cycle of pulling away reminds me of my problem of socializing. I get online so I can chat and hangout, but i get in cycles of needing Real People to talk too. My wife on the other hand tends to come home to escape from having to deal w/ people all day long. so going out for her is work. I need more people, she needs less :)

I've been needing Real People for awhile now because I spend all day alone and only get to talk to Lynn in the evenings. I feel that I'm pulling away because it seems like every time I try to have a friendship with people online I end up either finding the crazies who want to take over my life with their craziness ... or the people who are convinced that sunshine flows from their butt and the world is completely roses. I don't mind putting up with some crazy, it makes the world go around. And there's looking on the bright side of things, as I do, and there's refusing to talk about anything that 'might' be less than ideal as it's a very jaded view.

Plus I don't feel that I actually have much of anything to offer anymore since I don't leave the house, don't have a means of getting out and interacting with people.

I know that in some way I'm filling my time with hobbies simply because I'm depressed at being alone all the time. And ... wow ... this is probably more than you wanted to know.

Sorry

Hey been there lady :) Feel free to vent, this is the place for it :)
I can get pretty twisted up over things w/ my wife when she's dragging her heels at GOING anywhere when we're kids free!

On the plus side Lynn's pretty good about being willing to go out and he actually pushes me to do it once in a while. I think that at times he understands that I need it more than I realize it. :)

I think the packing and moving stuff has to count for some of the missed work-out time! :-)

Oh it does! *laugh* And we moved boxes around yet again last night to get a better visual idea of what we had left. But Lynn's right, we're both moving more stiffly since we've been kept from working out with our Wii every day and I've been really struggling with feeling like a fog's rolled in over my brain most days. Hopefully getting back to working out each day will fix a lot of that. :)

I understand the breaking away a bit from online things. But I'd certainly miss you if you were not around. So don't go completely! Please! Hugs!

I don't think I'll be going anywhere, I've been on lj for 9 years now. *hugs* I'll be sticking around. It's just ... I feel disconnected and like I don't really have anything to add lately.
